Examine Yourself!

Mary Weinstein — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 21:49:24 +0000

How often do you examine yourself? We ought to do it on a daily basis. Why? Because it helps keep us in line with God’s will. How do we examine ourselves? Think about how you’re acting, how you’re talking, and how you’re thinking. Ask yourself, “Was God pleased with what I did/said/thought today?” “How can I improve?” “What do I need to cut out of my talking/thinking/behavior?” I find that every day I can do a little improving in my life. There’s always something that we can change, remove, add or tweak that will help us become more Christ-like.

Work & Watch!

In Nehemiah 4:17 and 18 it says, “Everyone with one of his hands worked in the work, and with the other held his weapon. Everyone had his sword girded by his side and so built.” This hit me hard when I read it. I realized that when we get busy working for the kingdom, fulfilling our purpose in life, we tend to slip and forget that the enemy is still watching us, thinking of ways to interfere with our work. We cannot let our guards down for a minute. While we do God’s will, we still need to be praying, worshiping God, warfaring and fighting off everything and everyone that comes against us. We must continue to be watchful, vigilant and ready to fight at all times! So keeping working but be watchful!

Dreams

Do you have weird dreams? Do you ever wake up feeling like your dream was trying to tell you something? Well, it was!! Dreams are very powerful. They can reveal what you’re struggling with. They can be prophetic. They can be God revealing something to you. They can be because you watched something that night and you end up dreaming about it. They can also be the enemy trying to disturb you. First thing to do is determine what caused that dream. If you can rule out any TV watching, or the pizza you ate before bed, or your situation in life, then what you have left is either God or the enemy. God dreams do not cause fear. The enemy’s dreams do. Dreams are very symbolic most of the time. Sometimes they are meant to be literal. There are some excellent Christian books available that explain symbols, numbers, colors, etc. It is a good idea to get those books if you are the type of person that gets a lot of dreams or you know that God speaks to you in dreams, like me.

What kind of friend are you?

Mary Weinstein — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 00:41:59 +0000

In Mark 2:1-5 is the story of the paralytic man being lowered through the roof unto Jesus so He can heal the man. The four men who lowered the paralytic were his FRIENDS, not any family members. Notice the determination and the faith they had to carry this friend of theirs up to the rooftop and break the roof open and then lower his body while laying on a bed. Those are real friends, the kind that are willing to walk alongside of you while you are suffering and need help. Are you this kind of friend? The friend that carries the burden of another friend? The friend that intercedes for her? The friend that helps the “helpless?” The friend that is determined to help another even if it costs you time, energy, money? Are you the type of friend others can count on without feeling they are burdening you with their problem? Or are you just quick to give your opinion about their problem and not offer to help in any way, including praying for them? Check yourself this day. Be a real friend.

Fear can cripple you!

Mary Weinstein — Sat, 24 May 2008 02:15:33 +0000

Have you ever held back from doing something because of fear? I have. Fear crippled me since childhood after I saw an evil spirit. Never again did I want to sleep alone or in the dark. Fear held me back from furthering my education for many years because I feared I wasn’t smart enough. Fear kept me from having children for the first 9 years of marriage because I feared I wouldn’t be a good mother. Fear kept me from pursuing my purpose and calling. Fear is a lie straight from the pit of hell. It is a lie that the devil puts in your mind. It must be countered with the word of God. it must be defeated by not allowing it to take root in your mind. It must be recognized and attacked the very second it tries to enter your mind.

Adultery - The Healing Process

Mary Weinstein — Thu, 15 May 2008 04:57:29 +0000

Can a woman survive being betrayed by her husband?

Yes. Is it easy? Heck no. Is it better to get a divorce? It all depends who you ask and on the situation. Biblically, a woman has the right to divorce from an unfaithful husband. Does God prefer reconciliation? Yes, if there has been genuine repentance. Both spouses have to try as a couple to make things work. However, the unfaithful man must be remorseful about his acts. He must be willing to deal with the consequences that result from adultery. What consequences? To continue reading this article, please go to:

Mujeres Latinas

Mary Weinstein — Thu, 15 May 2008 04:44:10 +0000

Mujeres latinas – Are you tired of life? Do you ever wonder, “Is this all there is to life?” Or do you ever ask, “Why was I ever born?” You are not alone. Many women feel that way, especially Latina women. Let’s face it, Latinos are not exactly known for being ambitious or successful. But I believe that is starting to change. There are certainly a lot more Latinas becoming successful women. We see it in the business world, in Hollywood and elsewhere.

Have you ever wished you could be more successful, more educated? The problem is that as long as you just “wish” for it, nothing will happen. You have to “make” it happen for yourself. Many times all women need is somebody to come alongside of them and help them through the process.

I remember when my husband and I started our first business. We asked other people how does a person start a business. We received questionable answers. I’m not sure if it was because they didn’t really know or they just didn’t want to help another person succeed. That can happen!

At Friends with Purpose™ we believe in helping women. We believe in empowering, inspiring, motivating, encouraging and helping women become who they were meant to be.

Check us out and see what we can do for you, from one Latina to another!!
